Description

Based on ACMG/AMP guidelines and Hearing Loss Expert Panel specific criteria: the filter allele frequency of c.551G>C, p.Arg184Pro variant in GJB2 gene is 0,0038% (4/35426 Latino alleles with 95% CI) from Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; calculated by using inverse allele frequency at https://www.cardiodb.org/allelefrequencyapp/), which meets the PM2 criteria. This variant was identified at least in five individuals in trans with several known pathogenic variants (PM3_VeryStrong; PMID: 24158611, 10874298, 10982180, 11551103, 12176179, 16380907, 16380907, 17485979). Computational evidence predicted a damage impact of the mutation to the protein meeting PP3 rule (REVELscore: 0,983) Functional studies demonstrated that: mutant protein is neither trafficked to membrane nor able to oligomerize efficiently and unable to form functional GJCh in HeLa cells (PMID: 12176036, 1218943). Moreover, p.Arg184Pro mutant did not induce the formation of homotypic junctional channels, since the levels of conductance measured never exceeded background values in Xenopus laevis oocytes (PMID: 12505163), PS3_Moderate Therefore, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (PM2, PM3_VeryStrong, PP3 and PS3_Moderate).
